With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any
problems of plagorism or copyright violation?
My blog has a lot of unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help prevent content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.
Hi there. Copyright violation is one of the first things that i had to think about when creating the blog, so i decided that to get around this I would contact all of the artists that feature on this site to ask them if they would let/like me to put their work on here, which means that they have either given me work to post or have given me permission to source it from the internet.
In terms of your own work being taken without your permission, i would recommend that you place a watermark over your images and/or do something that makes them yours such as have a particular item or object that appears as a logo in each piece of your work! you could also edit the EXIF data and fill out your name, country, website etc, so when people save your content, they know that you are the owner of the work. I would also say that you should bear in mind that once you post post something online, anyone is able to copy it & distribute it as they please which is a massive down side to the internet. However, if you find your images/content on another site without your permission, you should email the owner of the site and tell them to take it down. if they don’t then you should probably get legal advice!
Hope my advice helps! If not, i have posted some websites that might!
